Welcome to Mary and Gary's Garden Diary for October
October 2010
This was not a good year for peppers but it
was not a complete failure. The tomatoes were fabulous and are still
going strong. The Fall colors are beginning to take over. Below, the
Agastache and Asters are hanging out while Mary is setting out the haunted
garden stuff.
One day I wear a T-shirt, the next day I need a coat, yet the annual colors are still hanging on.
This past weekend we planted a few dozen bulbs for next spring.
Below the brand new-old cabin is nearly ready to be haunted.
All of the grasses are showing tassles. The Tiger-eye Sumac is turning orange. The Arundo is at least
14-feet high, and here again is my favorite purple flower.
The purple Beauty Berry and the blue-gray Powis Castle Artimesia
are really showing their 3rd season of value. Last of all, our Flame grass, a new Halloween
attraction and a Gerbera Daisy.
